Midsummer(ish)
A play totally not borrowed from Shakespeare. At all. Ever.
Girl loves boy. Boy loves girl. Dad hates boy, but wants daughter to be with another... who someone else loves. Magical forest. Crazy actors. Ridiculous fairies. Mixed-up love potions. A donkey s head.
We ve all read multiple adaptations of Shakespeare s most famous comedy, A Midsummer Night s Dream. But none captures the mischievous fun, spirit, and storyline quite like this one in less than an hour!
This sparkling adaptation is the perfect hybrid, with the play feeling timeless, yet having modern references to things in today s world, like cell phones, Uber, and cute shoes. Likewise, the names of the characters are true to Shakespeare s classic, yet the language is contemporary... with just a few original monologues to heighten the educational value of this play. It will be a dream come true as you help young actors and audiences discover and understand the delight of Shakespeare s most popular comedy!
